My parents are from Taiwan but I grew up in Tokyo. So I was impressed by "Mado Kara Mieru". Do you set the lyrics before you created the melody or you started from the melody?
I don't know if it'd work but I am sending 3 mails in row.
Perhaps too many questions.

It happens both ways--sometimes I start with lyrics and write a melody around them, other times (like with Mado Kara Mieru) I write a melody first, then work with translators to find some words to fit them.
